If the concept of rent must exist, at least have it go to the government.

Really depends, imo. Local municipalities? Sure, but that's a decade-long fight to make it widespread throughout the nation. Welcome to democracy where one party is more than happy to work across the aisle with fascists. Federal? I can just imagine the Trump executive order firing all workers and the terrible outcome that may ensue.
